Pato: Milan will win 1-0 over Inter and Leo will score a goal in the second half hour

Live Bar February 4, in an interview with the "Milan Sports Newspaper" reporter, Milan veteran Pato talked about the topic of milan derby, and predicted the Milan derby in this round.

When you think about the Milan derby, what comes to mind first?

"Thinking about two games, one was a 3-0 win over Inter milan in San Siro on 2 April 2011, it was a wonderful show and we won beautifully. Then on 15 February 2009 we beat Inter 2-1, and I scored my debut goal in the Milan derby in that game, with Jankurovsky giving me an assist. ”

In addition, in 2011, you won the Serie A title that season (2010-2011) with your outstanding performances in the Milan derby

'Yes, everything went well that season and this Milan derby was crucial and we showed the fans that we could really win the Serie A title.'

Do you think milan can now compete with Inter for the Serie A title?

"The current Milan team is also very strong, with such a great player as Ibrahimovic, they are all expert players, he is making other teammates understand the importance of winning the title. When you're young, you obviously want to win everything, but if your wish isn't fulfilled, then the world will work the same way. And you just go back home, relax, keep playing, go back to the pitch, and the days go by day by, but that's the wrong thing to do. Instead, we need to really understand the importance of wearing a Milan shirt and how important it is to win. Even in games that seem very simple, we can't make a mistake because every game is equally important, every win is worth three points, and it's very important to take all three points. ”

Do you think Casey is fit to play in the front? Do you think he's right to play in the Milan derby?

"Casey is a very good player, he can play a lot of positions. Suffice it to say that Milan have a lot of good players who can decide the game and help the team to win. ”

One of them is undoubtedly Leo, are you surprised by his sudden explosive growth?

"When a young player joins Milan, it's not easy to succeed right away. Everything needs a process, and Leo is like that. Milan are a big club and it's hard to get a foothold here. But gold shines wherever it is, as long as you are strong enough, and Leo is like that. Leo has to understand his worth, he has to understand that he can make a difference and hopefully he can play a key role in the Milan derby. If he does, then he will take a further qualitative leap. ”

You've played alongside Maldini on the pitch and now he's the technical director of Milan, how do you think he's doing in that position?

"Maldini is a role model, for me he is my teammate, friend, father, brother, mentor. He chose to continue to give everything for Milan, everything he did, or everything he wanted to do, so that Milan could develop in a positive direction. Sometimes I would send him messages reminding him to come to the United States too. For example, I told him to also watch the Orlando City game, where there was a young 32-year-old striker who had high hopes. ”

Finally, the inevitable question, please predict the score of this Milan derby, who will be the protagonist of the game?

'I think it's going to be a tough game, it's going to be tough, Leo is going to score a goal in the second half of the half and then we're going to win Inter 1-0.'
